The TL got rear ended :(

my tl got rear ended on Saturday, guy was trying to make the light in a construction zone, and traffic came to a stop, he wasn't paying attention or something, and ran right into me doing about 30-35, i saw it coming but was too late and too close to the car in front of me to move, which he pushed me into the other car, barley scratched their car. They towed the car to a body shop today, I'll have to see what they say, part of the frame underneath got bent down, idk they might total it, if they do i think i might get a v6 6sp 7thgen accord.

I believe it's still a 3.0L in the 7th gen Accords. The 8th gen V6 are 3.5L though.

still the 3.0, but the f***ing piece of shit is still putting down ~208hp, and iirc ~184 ft lbs of torque at the wheels though (SAE corrected though) completely stock too, and it is basically the exact same as our 3.2s with the slush-o-matic, and full bolt-ons



BTW: you suck JRM

should be no different then debadging the emblems (it's not like they rivited it on , some dealers do do that, only a sticker) even then it should be even easier then debadging cause the paint has not had time to not fade under it like the rest of the paint on the car
